Nice and strong, but...

Kyle in OR – Machine this part was bought for: 2002 YAMAHA RAPTOR 660

Comments On Jun 29, 2013:The pivoting joints were so stiff to start and the rubber quickly deteriorated allowing sand and gunk to build up in the actual joint. Which locked them up even tighter. The strength of the tie rods is good but the tie rod ends need upgrading badly because of this problem.

Strong yet low quality

Comments On Apr 26, 2013:I purchased this tie rod set of my '03 Raptor 660.
I have less than a dozen rides (about 7 months installed) on these and both outer tie rod ends have developed slop in the ball ends. I haven't even had time to get them dirty.
They are good in the sense that they will take a serious hit, but got one star only because they require replacement already.
This should not happen so soon.

Comments On Dec 19, 2012:6 months and all 4 ends are loose.
They can take a hit that would have bent a factory part,BUT,the ends don't last.
Lots of rough woods riding,some sand too.

about time

Russell in MA

Comments On Nov 01, 2009:I've gone through to many stock tie rods from E-bay. Should have dropped the cash to get these guys a long time ago. Built really well and no more worries. I've had them for almost 2 months and I would have bent a pair of factories by now. Not a ding on these guys. Save yourself the trouble if you have a 2007 yfz. Your rods will fold on you if you ride hard. These will save you the long walk back.

Comments On Aug 19, 2008: If you own a Raptor these are a major improvement over stock. They are thicker, easy to install and adjust and an all around good buy.

Great ideal but......

BRIAN in OK

Comments On Feb 13, 2008:i tried to run them on a xc race quad and the ends wore out in 4 months. if you are a rec rider or just dont go 100% all out all the time they would be just fine. My neighboor runs them problem free on his raptor.
